Please solve question no.40.ii. Answer: x=1,y=-1. Share with your friends Share 0 Komal Garg answered this Dear student,Q. Solve for x and y; 3x=9.3y and 8.2y=4xSol. Now, 3x=9.3y ⇒3x=32.3y ⇒3x=3(y+2) am×an=am+n As basis are same, powers can be equated.Therefore, x=y+2.................(iii) x-y=2 .............(i) Similarly, 8.2y=4x ⇒23.2y=22x ⇒2y+3=22x xmn=xmn and am×an=am+n As basis are same, powers can be equated.y+3=2x2x-y=3.................(ii)Put x=y+2 from eq.(iii) in equation (ii)2y+2-y=32y+4-y=32y-y=3-4y=-1Put y=-1 in eq. (iii)x=y+2x=-1+2x=1Therefore, x=1, y=-1Regards 0 View Full Answer
